The University of Alberta Department of Music will celebrate the diversity of its talented performance students at the inaugural Making Music: A Gala Fundraiser January 24, 2011 at 8pm at The Winspear Centre for the Arts.

In the face of increasingly tight budgets, funds raised throughout the evening will help make it possible for the Department of Music to continue to offer outstanding educational opportunities, improved performance and teaching facilities, well-maintained instruments and experiences designed to enhance students? education and expand the Department?s presence internationally.

?Supporting an event like the Making Music Gala Fundraiser helps our students reach their full potential by giving the Department the means to support the efforts more effectively,? says Dr David Gramit, Department of Music Chair. ?All proceeds collected from tickets sold and donations made on the evening of the performance will directly benefit our students. No matter the size, each contribution helps ensure we can continue to provide the top-quality education that we are proud to provide, and that our students so richly deserve. Every little bit counts.?
